AIMS OF THE COLLEGE

Baobab College offers a broad, balanced and integrated curriculum which aspires to the highest level of international education.  In addition to our pursuit of academic excellence, we are committed to encourage and challenge our students to fulfill their emotional, social and physical potential.

PHILOSOPHY

To complement, support and deliver the Vision and Mission, Baobab College believes that:

  • The education we provide should be broad, balanced and integrated in order to lead to the effective development of academic, practical and social skills.
  • Balancing teaching and learning with creative, physical and social activities is fundamental to the further development of individual self expression, self-discipline, independence, responsibility and self-confidence.
  • The development of academic, personal, social, emotional and health skills and knowledge are central to realizing individual potential.
  • Education should inspire a love of learning and prepare individuals to make a positive contribution to the local environment and the world.
  • Effective teaching and learning will instill an understanding of, and ability to apply and inter-relate, the concepts and content of each area of study.
  • The full potential of each individual in our community is achieved through commitment, dedication and the search for excellence.
  • An effective teaching and learning ethos requires mutual respect, fairness, honesty, tolerance, supportive relationships, teamwork and a community spirit.
